Major Career Change for Me

As most of my readers know I have been trying to get into nursing school for the last year. For the last three semesters I have been taking the prerequisites in an attempt to acquire one of the coveted nursing school spots available every term.

But, truth is I never wanted to be a nurse. I respect the profession. My mother was a nurse for over 30 years and two of my best friends are nurses....but I wasn't cut out for that profession. I have no desire to handle fecal matter and other bodily fluids of strangers...or anyone else for that matter. My heart isn't in it.

So, after giving it a great deal of thought I have decided to follow my dream and become a lawyer. It is what I have wanted to do since I was a kid. Either that or be a rock star and, since the rock star thing hasn't panned out and never will, it looks like law school for me.

Starting next semester I will be changing my major to law. Not sure where I will go or how I will get it done...but I will. The current plan is to take as many pre-law courses as I can at the community college I attend, then transfer to a four year university for my minor, which will either be political science or journalism, and then attend nigh classes at Faulkner or Jones School of Law.

I am very excited about my future as a defense attorney in the State of Alabama.
